Riktar, I'd just like to bring something up. I was watching my download of ANH the otherday(awesome remix CD BTW). I haven't been able to burn it to disc yet, so I was watching it on my PC using Media Player Classic. At the end of the first VOB, right where Ben scares off the Sand People using a Kryte Dragon growl, the audio bursts into static. It only goes away if I skip a little forward. I tried it with some other players lying on my machine. Fortunately, BS Player, VCL Player, and WinDVD all played it without a hitch. I've never encountered something like that, so I thought I should mention it. Hope you recover soon.

weird - the first I've heard of that ...

Thanks for the kind words their - I also hope to recover soon!!

Hey there guys!!!!

I'm gonna be getting offline in a few minutes but I just wanted everyone to know that I REALLY appreciate all the support!

DARN - I've been climbing ladders for who knows how long now....

Like I said I've been having cable issues and they came out and checked it out BUT in the process of "checking" it out the disconnected Corbin's cable!!!

SO at about 8am on Sat. my son said he really really wanted to watch cartoons on his tv so he could also play.....

I said SURE! - I'll hook it back up......

So I set up my ladder - lock the latches, dig it in to the ground nice and snug agaist a railroad tie then as I'm at the VERY top lifting my leg over the roof...

My ladder then decided that after 5 years the safety latches just wanted to give out so the ladder slid/collapsed down on it's self trapping and twisting my right leg and flipping me directly on to the railroad tie head first - I ended up real banged up with a concussion and a massively twisted ankle - they have me on OXYCODONE-APAP and well - I think its time for a nap again...............

I'll get these torrents up as FAST as I can (or my brother

)

Later

Check on this list... to see if you can play dual layer....

Also please give me about a month or two................

The resultion on the video that is included is kinada poor and would in no way make for good materials to include the video on a new DVD version. It cool to have and watch on your PC bit the video is very lacking......

I WILL be hosting the whole CD as a torrent in a few weeks IF not WAY WAY SOONER!!!!

And yes,
To those that have heard - I had a bad fall from a ladder (And I was not even working!!!) on Saturday morning that resulted in a MAJOR twisted/sprained ankle and a concussion.

It was so bad that I was shaking for over 4 hours and I was speaking, dig this.. all jumbly and incoherently that they had to give me an MRI.

I'm realtively okay - (we'll kind as I cant wal'k or sit up for longer then a few minytes - So now I'm forced to take week off of work

- DARN IT!!!! as I cannot and will not climb up a latter yet!

But they now have me on this stuff called oxycodone/apap - well I've never been big on chemicals/drugs so this stuff has me WAY WAY outta it and also gets me dizzy and I'm also experianciong nausea and confusion (

no not cool at all - I need to take another pill but I'm trying to hold off on it).

SO don't expect supoer fast email replies.............

Now I'm gonnna lay down and get some Samurai flicks

UPDATE - TR47 Return of the Jedi - THE TORRENT

Okay - It seems that my line quality here in my new house SUCKS! - I just did a package loss test and it stuck it tongue out at me!!!

So I'll need to call the cable co. (the enemy

) and have them come replace all the beat down RG6 and even some RG59 (swept tested at 950 thru 2200 MHz!! - RG6 is fully swept tested to 2.4 - 3 Gigahertz ) that's on my roof

20 minutes later......

- I was checking it out (the cable) and it's old, beat-down, faded and it actually feels like the dielectric is brittle (I'm playing with it now and it it cheapo RG6 and some real thin RG59 and yes it is brittle and cracking!!) - THAT and WERE 4 barrel connectors in there so it was really 5 pieces joined together SO I replaced about 50ft. coming INTO my house -

I just tested it again and it WAY better!!

- But I'm sure I'll still have it drop again as it's more then likely the cable from the pole (DAMN - I can't legally do it myself - and my insurance wouldn't cover me

)

Well they cam out and the FIRST guy said I was fine...

You see it's bee kinda intermittent so of course it was working just fine when he was here BUT I insisted it was wack.

SO I busted out my trusty logs!!

SO he finally took me serious!

A few hours later his supervisior showed up - HE also found nothing wrong then insisted it was my PC - So I asked could it be two PC's and a Mac all having the same problems????

SO after he took my modem to the hub and tested it there.....

He came back and said he lost 32 packets of 300 AT the HUB!!

I hope they have it fixed buy next week..... SO I may have a friend host it next weekend for me locally.

Again Sorry guys........

But this is WAY beyond me just replacing some bad cable line!!

I'f you're talking about converting the XVID to DVD you can use ulead but I'm not sure about it keeping the 5.1 AC3 - It would most likley downsample the audio. JUST be sure you have a xvid and ac3 codec on your box.

It will always look better on a smaller screen. That's just how it goes.

It won't look bad but it won't look great either.

This is the most true statement about these or any of the DVD/DVDr versions.

And that's a Fact

And the Ewok movies. All that is missing is the holiday special...

I got the complete series of Droids on DVDr - I removed it from my list when I heard they were releasing them but leave it to GL to screw up the cartoon also - I might restart my 3 disc project now AGAIN

You see and that's the very reason I don't wanna put up the DVD files since they are 4.4gigs

Smaller file = Faster downloads + I wann keep them of eBay - I've now seen My Holiday Special (with my covers even on ebay!! - sold for $50 LUCKY ba$tard!) and my Clone Wars set now + I've seen covers that fans here have created that I put in my torrent that are now making there way to eBay also

(my brother puts some up everynow and then kinda cheap but he asked

)

So there is just no way I'm putting up a DVD of the Magnoliafan Edits at this time as I really wnat them off eBay for good. (I hope)
